Scott Hall and the Carolina Wood Floors/WSSU Motorsports Management Chevrolet were back Saturday night at the famed quarter-mile Bowman Gray Stadium competing in twin 20 lap Sportsman races. Hall entered the night 3rd in points standings in the division, with two top-five finishes in three starts so far this season.

Hall drew 20th of 24 drivers for the first 20 lap race, advancing his position rapidly in the short race to finish 11th. The winner had drawn 10th, so when the field was re-stacked for the 2nd race Hall missed the pole by just one position and started the race instead from his previous finishing position, 11th. Hall’s night would end early, though, as he met with the wall just two laps into the second race. The car was unable to continue and was taken to the pits for the evening.

The team’s other driver, Ryan Robertson, was at Caraway Speedway Saturday night competing in twin 100 lap events. Robertson’s night was also cut short after qualifying further back in the field than his practice time would have indicated, and then getting caught in an early multi-car accident.

The accident happened in front of the young driver on lap 3 of the race, and when Robertson checked up he was hit from behind and thrown into the melee. The car suffered extensive body damage, which was worked on during the race. Robertson was able to get back out onto the track, and finished both races in 18th place among 28 cars in the field.

“We’ve got a couple of torn up cars, so we’re headed back to the shop to get to work”, said team owner Mike Robertson. Scott Hall will race again Saturday night at Bowman Gray Stadium, and Robertson will prepare for his next UARA race. The team is also sponsored by WCWG/CW20, who is currently doing a promotion with Ryan Robertson and the Grand Prix Greensboro kart racing track.
